Brazil is a country of many people who speak their minds and blindly follow the media, which have aimed at destroying Dilma Rousseff and the Worker's Party -- and this movie clearly shows step 1 of such decline and fall. Dilma predicts the type of government that Brazil was about to have, as she describes "conservative, right wing, neoliberal" and today, Brazil has just elected Jair Bolsonaro as its current president. THIS MOVIE WAS LITERALLY RELEASED BEFORE ELECTIONS. This documentary outlines each and every step taken upon her impeachment, and how it was unlawfully done. Basically, the day democracy in Brazil begun to die.
The sad part: throughout the voting process against her, the newly elected president, Bolsonaro, preached a little acclamation towards Dilma's torturer, (during military dictatorship) and Brazilians STILL VOTED ON HIM. Like, how was this just not obvious enough, Brazil??
Brazil is a country that, despite its beauty, needs to critically think about what they watch. The future of this country is dark now under Bolsonaro's government. This movie will be a hallmark in History.
0.0Plot summary
The Trial documents the trial of Dilma Rousseff, focusing on the defense team, who struggles to prove her innocence against a majority vote by a Congress riddled with corruption. A tale of betrayal and corruption, the film presents Rousseff's personal story: herself imprisoned and tortured by the country's former military dictatorship, she now faces impeachment accused of fiscal crimes. Rousseff declares herself innocent and accuses the right-wing opposition of perpetrating a parliamentary coup d'état. The Trial witnesses how the impeachment triggers a profound political crisis in Brazil. It looks at the collapse of the democratic institutions and at the economic and geopolitical interests at the very heart of this crisis. The film offers a behind-the-scenes look at this historical moment. The filmmaker was granted unique access to the defense team, to deputies and senators and to President Rousseff herself. Ramos' technique is wholly observational, without interviews and narrations. The camera captures physical and conversational interactions in private and political spheres while offering viewers a glimpse of the outdoor mass demonstrations.

Left reflections
From the magnificent representation of politics-circus as a football match, going through the most human facets of each of the sides, to the sensible internal reading of the party that defends the struggles of the movements of race, gender and class it is truly captivating how the struggle for power and the daily battle of those who still believe a change in hell is possible.
